Not woke? It's got a strong independent wahmen, a plucky band of black pirates, neither which belongs there because they weren't there according to the author of the book and is only there to get the DEI score up, and puts Great Britain down at every opportunity as weak.
At the start of the movie it states that the movie is loosely based off of declassified files from Winston Churchill back in 2016. The way the movie tells the "history" it implies that the team assembled was the first of its kind. And like it could've been the start of the SAS or the OSS or both. Amazing movie if you haven't seen it yet!
for an action movie it wasn't intense for me like the german army were literally babies who can't shoot and just die so easily, I have seen many ww2 movies and this one didnt capture the time. its a 6/10 mid edgy movie for me
So glad i found this video, the book is a very good read, i think of this was done by an American studio about American troops there wouldve been more reverence. As it is, they're portrayed as complete nutters that thrive on killing. Anders doesnt hate germans because theyre nazis, he hates them because they invaded his country, he goes dark in later missions but thats because his friends have been executed or german reprisals on civilians. This wouldve been better as a tv series along the lines of SAS rogue heros. That way you get sneaky beaky missions and pew pew things go boom.
